Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Cold Cathode Gauge?
A Cold Cathode Gauge is a type of vacuum pressure measurement device that operates by ionizing gas molecules in a magnetic field, allowing for precise pressure readings in high-vacuum environments.
How do Cold Cathode Gauges work?
Cold Cathode Gauges work by using a magnetic field and electron emission to ionize gas molecules. The ion current is measured and converted into a pressure reading, typically ranging from 10^-3 to 10^-11 Torr.
What are the benefits of using Cold Cathode Gauges?
Cold Cathode Gauges provide reliable and accurate pressure measurements with minimal maintenance, are capable of operating in extreme vacuum conditions, and have a long operational lifespan due to their robust design.
Where are Cold Cathode Gauges commonly used?
Cold Cathode Gauges are commonly used in vacuum systems for research laboratories, semiconductor manufacturing, and other applications requiring precise pressure control in high-vacuum environments.
